[Mailman-Users] One mailing list is unable to receive mail from user.
Dear list, One mailman mailing list can not receive mail from user and /var/log/mailman/vette shows "Message discarded," as follows. ---/var/log/mailman/vette: Jun 04 14:17:37 2020 (1238) Message discarded, msgid: < ty2pr01mb4779856244...@ty2pr01mb4779.xxx.xxx.com> The failed mail shows an 'x-beenthere' header in it like below. errors-to: x...@list.co.jp list-id: x-beenthere: x...@list.co.jp <---This is the mailing list where mail from user can not be sent. The 'x-beenthere' header looks to be the reason why the problematic mailing list fails to receive mail from user, but I have no idea in what kind of situation we get 'x-beenthere' header in mail. Does anyone in the list have any idea to describe why the mailing list is unavailable to receive mail and what makes us get an 'x-beenthere' header?

That means either that (1) the message has previously been successfully posted to the list (not necessarily by that user), and the user is resending the message "as is" to the list (some MUAs call this "forward" or "bounce"), or (2) something very odd is happening. (1) might happen if the post is, say, a FAQ or introduction to the list and the user wants to post it on a regular basis. "Resending" to the list might seem like an easy way to do it, but will fail because of the x-beenthere header. I have no idea why case (2) would happen, except as a bad joke by somebody who understands mail and Mailman quite well. > Does anyone in the list have any idea to describe why the mailing > list is unavailable to receive mail? As you suspected, the x-beenthere field will prevent that list from receiving that post. It needs to be removed from the message before resending. If the situation I described above is what it happening, the best solution is simple: make a template message, and copy that into a new message each time. If the sender really likes the forward method, I don't recommend it, but they can CC themselves, then delete the mailing list post from the folder where they keep such form messages when it arrives. The user's personal CC copy won't go through the list, and it won't have the x-beenthere field, so can be resent "as is" as many times as you like.

[Mailman-Users] Scrubber: filename too long
>From /usr/lib/mailman/cron/senddigests, I'm seeing this - which is the result of an annoying webbug URL in some (actually important) inbound messages.

[Mailman-Users] Setting a moderator password
I'm trying to set a moderator password for my list and I seem to be doing something wrong: I went into "Passwords" entered the moderator password both times and 'submitted' it and I get "Authorization failed" when I tried to use it. What did I forget to do? Do moderators log in on a different login screen than the normal one or something? Note that I don't need a "moderator" email address [we're preparing for moderators in emergency moderation] but I added one anyway and it didn't help /Bernie\ Bernie Cosell ber...@fantasyfarm.com -- Too many people; too few sheep -- -- Mailman-Users mailing list -- mailman-users@python.org To unsubscribe send an email to mailman-users-le...@python.org https://mail.python.org/mailman3/lists/mailman-users.python.org/ Mailman FAQ: http://wiki.list.org/x/AgA3 Security Policy: http://wiki.list.org/x/QIA9 Searchable Archives: https://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users@python.org/ https://mail.python.org/archives/list/mailman-users@python.org/
